I think a lot of you underestimate how absolutely disgusting the current military apparatus is.

I can't give you proof of my identity but I know that you're mostly wrong. I've said this for years: the military is a slice of America. Every faction, identity, and interest present in America is present in the military. You have at least half of the military voting for Trump, just like America. PA military mostly voting for Trump, just like the rest of PA.

Im a fucking Service Academy graduate that joined when I was 17 years old. I am very much in tune with the state of the military.

The single largest problem facing the military is talent bleed, and for good reason.

I am a vet and live by a major us army base. Im regularly disgusted by the actions of the active duty members in uniform I come across. Most of them come from a chemical brigade if I've been correctly identifying their unit patch.

Military ballots are also from administrative people who outnumber "soldiers"

I always thought the military skewed right, based on the “God, Guns, America” unofficial tag line of the Trump party alone

You are correct. Academy officers seem to have the highest concentration of cucks from my experience. Our officer corp is very bad in recent decades.
